Comment on yeet

It’s just your brain warning you about bad things that could happen. Only brains don’t give a pop up notification, it’s just streams of thoughts and sensations. That’s how I’ve chosen to interpret my intrusive thoughts, anyway.

The way it was explained to me -
I’m walking on the roof of a building, carrying my baby. I get the intrusive thought to yeet the baby over the edge. Result - I recognize the horrible thought, causing me to hold the baby tighter and remove us from the roof, thus keeping us both safer.
